Season Seven Ratings
The seventh season of Queen Sugar averaged a 0.07 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 460,000 viewers. Compared to season six, that’s down by 29% in the demo and down by 28% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how Queen Sugar stacks up against other OWN TV shows.
